Spa&health centers
Long time ago Slovenes discovered natural springs with thermal and mineral waters and their curative effects. Roman escavations and written records going back to year 1147 bear witness to that. Rogaška Slatina with its rich healing waters is the oldest Slovene health resort. In the past it was a meeting place of the rich and guests longing for health. Even today, Rogaška Spa has an important role in development, research and use of mineral waters for curative purposes.
Nowadays, the Slovene natural health resorts offer programmes that make the best of mineral and thermal waters, thalassotherapy, healing mud and climate. Just like Slovene spas use natural resources, they have also developed many healing methods and preventive health care programmes. These programmes consider all medical findings, discovered at various fields of research. The spas are specialized in different treatments, as for instance rheumatic diseases, locomotor organ traumas, neurological and digestive diseases as well as cardio-veins diseases. Wellness and beauty programmes are gaining importance increasingly. |
